Empty...
That is how i feel since you walk into my life and taken what seemed to be my youth
I feel like i have an empty void inside of me..
A void that can never be filled
A void that is so dark, it scares me even now as i think about it.

Alone...
Feeling as if I’m about to be stricken by madness too since you’ve been gone
For is it a crime for one to crave for company
For one to just have someone to hold at night and call their own
For the heart to long for another that beats exactly as it does

Disgust...
As i imagine you grinding on him as if it were me
How can you kiss my lips and pretend like you never kissed his?
How can you hold him close like you held me?
How can you be so heartless...and let me feel like I’m going to die on the inside?

Lost...and yet found...
Now i understand why a great poet said,
“we are all imperfect but its how we deal with our imperfections that makes us perfect”
You were part of my imperfections
And the best way of dealing with this imperfection is walking away
Walking away from all the pain and heartache
From the dark void and into the light
Your indiscretions were my epiphany...my clarity
...my way of solitude...
